Initially, Mexican plays were mainly amateur reenactments of biblical stories. However, as a result of the Mexican Revolution in 1910, Mexican migrants flowed into the U.S. This flux of Mexican migrants into the U.S. marked the birth of a unique ‘mezcla’ (‘mixture’) culture within Mexican American communities. This new identity evolved and became increasingly present in the theatrical world. In their plays, Mexican-Americans addressed their socio-economic positions, stereotypes that they were assigned by the white majority, and their positions as minorities in a changing society. Over time, a consistent set of values that characterized Mexican-American community became an archetypal basis for many plays. Today, Chicano plays both act as nods to their Mexican heritage as well as their growth into American society. Chicano theater creates a dual-dialogue about the Chicano/a history and growth/change as a unique and evolving culture. In essence, this sect of theater is incredibly precious as it captures and elucidates the birth, struggles, and developments of a multi-origin culture.
